Publisher's summary

Just as Hugo is starting to get a grasp on the threat to the cities on the wheel, he is flung back in time again.

This time in the body of a Nox, Hugo has to get used to this new strange body. Having four arms is bad enough, now he has to navigate an entirely new culture. Hugo has to hope that the few facts he has learned about the Nox will be enough to pretend to be one of them.

Forced to pretend to be someone he has never met, Hugo is in constant danger of being caught. He will have to navigate a school system entirely different from the one he knows, decide which magic domain to choose, and avoid accidentally

If he can master these challenges, he still has to convince the sentinels to help him save the cities on the wheel, while wearing the body of their oppressors. This new body will test Hugo’s resolve and ingenuity. But the hardest challenge will be one that comes from an unexpected source.

The adventure continues!!

And a fantastical experience it is as the ‘body hoppin’ MC gets spiritually transported to other bodies even while he continues to expand his base of power and knowledge to admittedly unbelievable levels. Although, the whole hetero dude forcibly shoved in a girls body was a bit weird, for this story it really worked and the author really brings the hurdles one would face in such a thing to believable reality. Great job, and can’t wait for the third!!

Solid Sequel

I really enjoyed the third prestige. The fourth prestige started a little rough with his awkwardness in the new body. It improved greatly once he started working on his new domain. The plot moved to the point where I think the next book will be the last. I’m excited to see how it ends. The narration was really well done.

New adventures

The story continues with the main character going into a different species body and having to learn all of the ins and outs of the new race. He gets a New family and really wants to help them out. As much as he can. Every life he goes back in time to he always tries to do his best to stop the cataclysm from happening. He just more knowledge of what’s going on behind the scenes but ends up going back in time again
In this in a ration of the character going back in time he is put into a females Body and has to navigate a new species a female body and a whole different hierarchy system. With him being the princess daughter.
The first part of the story is great has a lot adventure and I really enjoyed it. The second part when he becomes the princess doesn’t really have much for me. Because of his family he doesn’t really learn much about his new power and towards the end takes more of the vacation and relax then worry about the event coming. It’s OK but I really enjoy this first part of the book.

Ok

*I recieved a free copy in exchange for an honest review*

This was a decent book, not as good as the first but still decent enough to read a sequel.

This is a GREAT story!

I know a lot of people will have an issue with a man stuck in a girl's body, but this is handled beautifully. The mc has issues with the change including a love interest that he-now-she is not interested in. The author addresses this and ends what could have been a very different book. Everything else that follows is really story driven. Having to play the role of a female of another species that is opposed to your original species and deal with their cultural differences and royal politics is a daunting task for the mc and the author. I couldn't help but be drawn into the story just to see what happens next and how it's addressed.

Yeah, I know I received a free code for this audiobook in exchange for an early and honest review, but this story is bigger than that. If you're looking for a good audiobook That has a really intricate world and a really good storyline the I recommend this audiobook.

Good Series Continuation

I think this is a phenomenal series. I have a feeling the next book may be the end of the series but there is alot of build up for Hugo right now and his plans, goals and hopes to save the circle and all of those who live within in. This book had a lot of good things going for it but I felt that towards the end of it, well honestly it felt like filler. I know this story has alot going for it and I highly recommend it to all fans of the genre. Here's hoping that book three will be full of action from beginning to end.

Ronnie Rowlands is an amazing narrator and does such a good job with the narration of this book and series.
